So yea. They can ask for rights to their child, a Judge will probably just say something like, "You're admitting to the rape? Then that's new evidence. As such you can go back to court and I'm denying your right to custody of the kid." That is completely dependent on the judge. I doubt a sane one would give rights to the rapist.
Lets talk about your "stats" http://socialismartnature.tumblr.com/post/30840803485/dont-believe-rape-culture-is-real-here-are-some I see no mention of where this data was obtained. I can't verify it. Out of every single one of my male friends not a single one would rape a woman or even have sex with one that was black out drunk. Hell half of them have issues picking a chick up and most time just play video games and watch porn to pass time. They're all college age.
This one. http://25.media.tumblr.com/924c1c31580d677e482ee01d5933616f/tumblr_mg9u3rPNKJ1rmjxl5o1_500.jpg
Nice picture. Evidence doesn't support that. If rapes go unreported where are they getting the number from? 99% of aliens visiting earth go unreported. 100% of modern day God smiting people by turning them into salt go unreported.
http://24.media.tumblr.com/70deea41e8a2698a3089ce6090ca1e58/tumblr_mk1a07doiv1qbzg93o1_500.jpg
Again, how do you know how many are getting not-reported? You can use made up evidence to create anything such as 100% of those unreported aliens were green eyed dancing martians that looked like norse gods.
Campus rape rates have dropped which can be seen in the earlier evidence I posted, that evidence is from the US government. One/two Politicians doesn't mean lots of politicians. He got heckled out of office I think. I might be wrong though.
Tumblr isn't the best source for... sources. The government does a decent job at it because they have an accurate census report.
Yea Todd Akin is out of office. He is no longer a politician.

There are several sources at the bottom of that page too. Please take the time to actually read the sources, instead of pretending they don't exist.

States 51% of rape is reported then the thing you linked said only 40/100 get reported. It's off by 20%
But it looks like they have a decent way of surveying. I don't know the exact accuracy but neither do they. So statistically speaking they're probably good.

If you're not reporting a crime, you have no reason to be upset that the person didn't get caught. Things don't magically happen. Tumblr should probably talk more about making sure crimes get reported.

Yea it's pretty shitty. I would have taken the deal of not taking the 110 dollars a week in child support.
"After a family court judge ordered Melendez to pay $110 a week in child support, Melendez asked for visitation rights, and offered to withdraw his request in exchange for not having to pay child support, according to the lawsuit."
Judge is a judge... I don't know how well he judges though.

You have to have nearly without a doubt evidence in order to convict someone. Sometimes it is even required to make an arrest. So I'm not surprised these crimes lack strong evidence to make an arrest. It doesn't mean we should change the legal system just means we need to have ways to get more concrete evidence.
So we can really only look at the 40 that were reported. You can't do anything if a report was never filed.
3/40 is still a low number. 8/40 go to court so 1/5 have strong enough evidence to convict them. The rest is up to lawyers.

You also convinently ignore points that don't suit you. In 31 states the rapist can sue for rights to see the child of the raped women. Can you understand that only in a culture where rape is normalized, that men who rape a women are able to sue the women so that he can take custody of the child?
I've been googling a bit for a source for this statement and the best thing I can find is an open letter by a woman who says she was raped, got pregnant and kept the baby. She does not explain her assertion other than saying "there are no laws preventing it".
There are two problems with what she's saying. First, her alleged rapist was never convicted. So, in the eyes of the law, he is not a rapist. She argues in her letter that women may decide to drop charges as a private deal with their alleged rapists, in order to not have to go through the custody battle. Again she is speaking of people who are not convicted rapists. People who are not convicted rapists should have the ability to sue for custody of their children. Since I haven't found any facts besides her own assertion, I can't confirm whether it is alleged rapists or convicted rapists that in these 31 states enjoy the right to sue.
Second problem is that all she's saying is that there's no law against suing. As in, it is not expressly forbidden. That doesn't mean it will have a chance of actually succeeding in court. There are a lot of things that, while legal to sue for, will get thrown out of court immediately. If this is indeed about convicted rapists, I get the feeling such lawsuits would get exactly that treatment.
The third and final problem is with what you are saying. Having the possibility to sue does not mean rape is normalized. If you really think so, then clearly you don't know what the word normalized means. Here, let me help you: http://onelook.com/?w=normalize&ls=a
This was posted after I started writing the above, but I can chip in here as well. A father who pays child support should absolutely have visitation rights. Since he was convicted, I would assume she was granted damages for the rape. It would also be reasonable to make the rapist pay for the abortion, if she chose to have one. But she didn't. She just tried to milk him for an even greater legal punishment than the one he actually got when he stood trial for his crime.

There are a lot of factors that come together to normalize rape.
Also, no, stopping a man who has RAPED you from visiting your child is in no way "milking" for further punishment. A little common sense, a man who has caused huge damage to you mentally and physically, should not be given a right to spend time with your family, causing the women a huge amount more grief.

Yeah, I guess that makes sense then.

Disregarding rape in prison settings, very few people do that. Usually they are the rapist, an accessory to the rape, or a close relative or friend to the rapist. These are, on the large scale of things, only a handful of people. By far the majority of people strongly condemn rape. Convicted rapists often require special protection in prison, because the other inmates will consider them the scum of the earth.
Or perhaps you are talking about jokes made about people you've never met and never will meet. I myself have told jokes about the Fritzl case, for example, because there's a clever pun about it that can be made in Swedish. "Har du släckt i källaren" means "did you turn off the lights in the basement", while "har du släkt i källaren" means "do you have family (members) in the basement". That doesn't mean I don't think it was a horrible crime. It's no different than making jokes about Hitler or slavery or Mao.
Anyway. The point is that you can joke about anything, without supporting the crime or disaster behind it. Very few people would laugh in the face of the victim.
